MindsEye |OT| The Benz Presents - Mafia 2077

What did he turn into? Didn't know this game has shape shifting. Now i kinda wanna get it.
I think he turned into a wooden light post?

I love the shitty audio too. The trumpet fart when the Fail screen shows is top quality.

The collision detection gap between the truck and dune buggy is bigger than the worst 3D game during the PS1 era.

This game looks like something you'd find in a gamestop garbage bin where they throw away all the crappy games they have in stock and it's discounted to hell just to get rid of the inventory. The name is generic, the gameplay looks like 360 era jank, and the premise of the story seems boring. Nothing about this game looks worth buying unless it's 20 dollars or below and you want to give it a try.
$20.. I dunno, there's some games for free where I've wanted a refund on my time back.

Some games are not even worth your free time.
 
I opted to get Indiana jones instead since it's on sale.

Think you need a strong dose of pcp to want to pretend like this isn't a $20 bargain bin from what I've seen.

At $20 or on ps plus I'd bite.

sometimes just forget it will be better
this game is waste of ur life even for free haha
 
Can anyone with a PS5 Pro give me the low down? I'm so intrigued by this game b/c of all the pre-release shenanigans but I also want to support it if has a good story and its obv a small developer. Does it look/run decent on the Pro?

Ok so far

+ Cutscenes look pretty awesome. And the city looks straight up like Cyberpunk 2077. Production values seem high.
+ Story is already intriguing regardless of how predictable it's supposedly is
+ Great to hear Lincolns actor again
+Controls feel good
+Haptic feedback with the triggers
+There is licensed music and the OST is pretty sick so far

-Fuck man that framerate. Def not a solid 30 and there's no performance options. Big yikes indeed. It's already kinda choppy in cutscenes and walking around. Nothing game breaking or detrimental to the experience (for me) but it's noticeable as fuck. Hopefully that gets fixed up.

What are you playing it on? I'm guessing it needs some time in the oven (patches) still?

Oh god this dude is so annoying. I can't stand these fucking drama farmers on ANY level.

I caved about 20 minutes before release and pre-ordered, been playing it since 6pm, it's good, there's lots of jank, the framerate is definitely all over the place even on PS5 Pro, but it's ambitious and i like this kind of game, the story is excellent so far.

I'd say it's got huge potential, needs a bit more time in the oven.
Thanks this is what I needed to hear!!
 
Where the fucking scores at??? I'm legit curious now. MMaRsu MMaRsu has managed to get me telenovella levels of invested in this drama.

They didn't send review copies/codes to anyone. Reviewers didn't get to start playing the game until retail launch, same as everyone else. Given how short the game is, I imagine we'll start seeing scores begin trickling in tomorrow or the day after. Assuming outlets even care enough to buy a copy to review.


I can't stop watching this and laughing. It looks like his femur materializes outside of his leg and turns into the size of a tree. 🤣

God this guy sucks. He went full on grifter a few years ago and never looked back.

Game looks like shite though.

idk man, these guys leech on millions of subbers but somehow they can't dress themselves beyond trailer trash levels. This is how you wake up. You have 100k's of views, do something about it.
 
I want this game so much, it's everything I'm looking for at the moment! The only issue is the online scene and reviews will kill it and I know if I wait a week or two it will go to $30 really fast.

I'm trying my best to not give in.
 
the game runs like absolute shit on my system and I have no idea why. Stutters like crazy. I have a 5080 ffs.

Guys, Sony is refunding the game due to the game's performance issues. I really encourage everyone to try this and get a refund

We should not support games that release so broken
 
Matty plays reviewed it and showed gameplay. See for yourself how bad it looks.




"There's no cops, there's no crime system"

Yeah no shit, it's not an open world game.

Still people wanting to be something it's not. Weird man.

Watched this, what a load of horseshit really. More folks wanting the game to be GTA. "I couldnt even steal cars".

My god. The worst game? Fucking lmao. Please tell me how this is worse than Gollum or King Kong.

It's not a good game, it's not polished.

But it certainly isn't "the worst game of 2025". My god the hyperbole is insane.

Mafia Definitive edition is not an open world and have those things
 
Damn, I wanted this to be an okay old GTA clone, but it looks like it really is trash. I wonder what the story is behind it's release like this. Are they like "We have to just get this turd out".

True but it's not open world? I thought it was

It was never a "GTA Clone" though

Looking up the staff on LinkedIn, despite some being ex-Rockstar dev's many left a year or two into development. Looks like the rest still there haven't got much experience of developing high quality games.
 
My prediction? Build a Rocket Boy lays off most of their ~400 staff (assuming they're at the same staffing level as they were when Eurogamer did their article in 2023) or shutters completely by year's end.

There are entirely too many red flags around this mess of a game. From its origins as a co-project, to the fact that no one, not even Benzies, could explain what the game is, to the lack of review copies and embargo being the same time as release, and two high level execs leaving days before launch.

If you're willing to risk your money on it, you're a braver person than I.
You should/could consider this a "peer-review" thread where a bunch of us will try to paint as thorough and clear a picture of the game as we possibly can. Some of us will likely be more critical on certain aspects, while the rest of us will probably try to dig deep to uncover the positives. It will be a thread full of "second opinions" that you'll likely be able to rely moreso than most mainstream reviews. At least, that's my intent here besides playing the game and discovering it for myself.

Anyway, I've ordered it and its on the way. I'll be playing something else in the meantime.

Well, Gollum came out in 2023 and Kong: Survivor Instinct came out in 2024. None of them came out in 2025 :P

Yup you're right damn time flies. Still dont see how this game is any worse than those, considering the Steam scores. This game at least has a nice coherent (so far) story.
